Languages Common, Halfling

Halflings are one of the smallest races in Elanthia. They tend to enjoy the simple pleasures of life, such as food and family. A key trait of every halfling is their large, hairy feet, often very well groomed. However, don't let their size, kindness, or feet fool you. If they are threatened, they are a considerable adversary. Yes, due to their size, they are physically quite weak, but they have great fortitude and compensate this flaw through unparalleled dexterity. They can fire a bow or hurl a lightning bolt with devastating accuracy.

There are four cultures among the halflings; the Paradis, the Brughan, the Mhoragian and the Malghava.
